I've had a tank for about 6 months now. 10 gallons, 1 betta, 3 zebra danios, 1 snail, 1 african dwarf frog. They all seemed very healthy and happy, I do partial water changes every week. All of sudden, with no signs of sickness yesterday morning, one of my danios was dead by late afternoon. it was really pale and looked like it's stomach had been eaten out (I'm guessing my other fish did that, after all when I found it my snail was working on it), but no obvious signs of sickness. Everyone else still seemed very healthy and happy.
Then this morning, my Betta, who is usually very active, was very lethargic. I isolated him, and his belly looks unevenly bloated - his left side is bigger. The scales still look normal - they had looked paler in the tank, but I think it was just the lighting. Also, on the bloated side it looked like maybe there was something white sticking out, like a scale, but once I removed him, all the scales looked normal color, etc. What could be going on with my tank?
Thanks for your help.... ~indrani
